Swedish melodic death metallers The Unguided have decided to part ways with drummer John Bengtsson after almost a year of collaboration. In a short statement John states: "I have decided to leave The Unguided cause of a few different reasons. I want to thank for my time in the band and everybody for the support."

The band also comments: "The Unguided want to thank John for a great time and the hard work behind the drum kit. We wish John and his family all the best for the future and hope at some point our paths may cross again. But hey! Fear not, The Unguided will still be moving on (pedal to the metal) and a new drummer will be announced shortly. Stay tuned and hold your balls and labials tight! /Richard, Roger, Roland and Henric"
